10 Top Tips for Health and Wellbeing

10 top tips to implement to help you improve your personal health and wellbeing

Check with your GP or healthcare professional prior to making any changes to your diet.

Eat regularly; generally this is three good meals plus two healthy snacks each day. By eating regularly you will be enhancing your metabolism and stoking your engine. For more specific guidelines please refer to your programme.

Eat only ʻrealʼ food. This is natural food, food that occurs naturally within nature. Consider; does it have two legs, four legs, can it swim, does it fly, does it grow? If the answer to any of these questions is 'yes' then it is real food.

Avoid snacking on processed foods and choose real food instead.

Replace ready meals with meat and fish plus plenty of vegetables.

Hydrate: Drink plenty of water to keep yourself hydrated. 1.5 to 2 litres per day.

Alcohol: Follow the governments recommended guidelines of 14 units per week for both men and women.

Take regular exercise: 30 minute X 5 each week is recommended as a minimum by the NHS.

Sleep: Get plenty of sleep at least 7 – 10 hours each night, this will help you to feel energised and reduce any stress you may be feeling.

Weigh yourself just once a week. Ensure it is the same day, same time, wearing the same clothes and on the same set of scales. This will help you to keep track of your weight and make any necessary adjustments.
